About the Item
Antique Bronze Dog Portrait of a Terrier
Pierre-Albert Laplanche (French, 1826-1873)
Signed in script to base "Laplanche"
Stamped "E.V 3753"
8 x 2.75 x 8 1/4 inches
This is a superb and sensitive depiction of an attentive dog standing with its ears pricked, head turned and eyes deeply focused on the viewer. The patina is a light- brown finish and the details are crisp and very fine. The dog displays an exceptionally kind face and looks good from all angles. It’s a very sweet and compelling portrayal of a “family dog.”
Pierre-Albert Laplanche was born in 1826 in Lyons and was a student of Pierre-Louis Rouillard. Additionally, Laplanche exhibited at the Paris Salons and numerous examples of his sculptures can be found in the Musee des Beaux-Arts in Reims, France.

- Antique: Mare Playing with a Terrier Dog (Good Companions) P. J. Mene 1860Located in SANTA FE, NMAntique Horse Bronze: Mare in the Stable Playing with a Dog (Good Companions) Jument à l'écurie jouant avec un chien Pierre-Jules Mene (French, 1810-1879) Bronze 19 x 10 inches One of Mene's most beloved bronze, well-loved early example with beautiful rich patina. A sensitive portrait of a horse nuzzling his companion while the terrier is giving kisses to the horse’s nose. Cast by Mene’s own foundry and is very well detailed with a medium brown patina. Pierre-Jules Mêne (1810-1879) was one of the most successful and prolific animalier sculptors of the 19th century, known for his naturalistic representation of animals. Mêne received no formal education in sculpture but was taught to draw and model by his father and later began casting his own sculptures. He was largely self-taught, possessing a keen observation of nature that enabled him to capture the essence of his animal subjects with remarkable accuracy and vivacity. His work debuted at the Paris Salon in 1838, and from that point onwards, he exhibited his sculptures regularly. Mêne specialized in small-scale domestic animals, his subjects often including horses, dogs, bulls, and sheep. Interestingly, almost no big game are found in Mêne's ouevre. Beginning in 1837 as orders started coming in, Mêne worked as Antoine-Louis Barye before him, opening his own foundry where he personally oversaw the manufacture and production of his art. The work produced there bears the hallmark of extraordinary attention to detail and thoughtfulness shown in every element of presentation and assembly. His mastery in the technical aspects of casting bronze without relying on professional founders for the completion of his models gave him a significant advantage in producing his pieces with fine detail and at a lower cost. This operation was expanded in 1852 to handle the casting of models for his new son-in-law, Auguste Cain. Mêne’s sculptures...Category
